| - Since I moved to Richmond Hill last July, I have driven or walked past this little place every day on the way to work. It's tucked away in the Richmond Heights Plaza right next to Subway. Never did I think this little place would serve some of the best Shawarma I've ever had.
Friday night I went after work because the day before the BF was in town and decided to try this place out for lunch while waiting for me to get in from work. I walked into my apartment and was immediately welcomed by the smell of lamb. Drool. Wait, cruel. Where's mine?
Of course, once I mention the smell he goes on and on about how delicious his lamb burger was and how I have to try it some time. Thanks! I will and I won't bring any home for you either.
I walked in with intention of ordering the lamb burger but once I saw Shawarma I had to have it. Since I was starved and ate lettuce for lunch, I decided to order the Shawarma plate. They didn't have a lot of chicken left, so I got both lamb and chicken. Sweet! The plate came with basmati rice, spicy potatoes, tabbouleh and coleslaw. I was amazed with the amount of food and all for just 10 bucks. I had enough for two meals.
When I got home I was determined to eat as much as possible but I decided to split it so I could enjoy it again. Oh, and I made sure to take a photo of the plate and send it to the BF. In your face, I just had Shawarma!
Honestly, I love these kinds of places. The ones that shock the crap out of you. I know it's cliché, but never judge a book by its cover, and I definitely did. Think of all the Shawarmas I could have eaten by now. Such a shame.
My next trip will be with the BF, should always share the love, that's why we Yelp this stuff!
Plus, they have a 2 for 1 Shawarma special. A $10 dinner for two is hard to find and this food is conversation worthy.
Cheers,
Tiff
